Big House

We stayed up through the night
Staring at the ceiling
Twiddling knobs on the radio
Always eluded by contact
From some lonely wanderer outside
But it’s alright
If we’re the only people between heaven and hell and sea and sky

Every time I do something right
Right by you
The earth stops spinning and then
I fly off once more
But not before
I take the moment in
A place between skull and chin
To await rumination

I’d like to fantasize
That given the budgеt
You and me could build a big house near a city
And makе music
Reality disappoints
But I keep hope
That somewhere on the planet
There’s some place you and I can live our lives

Every time
I start thinking like
“It’s all real
And right now is the right time”
Clocks tick at half speed
And at their lead
I suffer from the divide
Between what I feel and real life
But waiting here’s just fine
